Came here for the pizza but it wasn’t even on the menu so not sure if it’s gone for good but the crab toast was delicious. Great spot for a higher end, chef centric menu and for people conscious about locally sourced ingredients. The rustic farm to table vibe was amazing, and the quality of ingredients seemed amazing. The sorbets were exactly what I was craving. We had a small issue with a cracked sauce dish and the staff took care of it

Truly spectacular everything. The service was top notch, they really bent over backwards to make sure everyone in our group was happy for our birthday celebration. The food was ridiculously good. You can tell how every detail was planned and put together with care.<br><br>Market beets, artichoke and calamari for appetizers were phenomenal. So many flavors in every bite. The cheeseburger was unlike any other burger I've had ever, because there was so much creamy plants on and around it. Crunchy from the bed of greens in every bite and topped with a creamy spinach type, somehow I felt healthy eating this burger.<br>And the desserts, truly incredible. The caramel, popcorn, chocolate sundae was exactly as incredible as that sounds. The chocolate cake also incredible. Enjoy

Their service and food were good. The only downside was that the cake cutting fee was $10 per person. 😭😭 It was actually more expensive than the cake itself. I wish it were a little bit less than that. Except for that, everything was great.

We went to ABC Kitchen with high expectations, especially given its celebrity chef reputation and for seasonal, vegetable-forward cooking.<br><br>The ambiance is a clear standout — warm, inviting, and beautifully done. It’s one of those spaces that immediately feels special and thoughtfully designed.<br><br>The food, however, didn’t quite match that level.<br><br>We ordered a broccoli–cauliflower app with citrus dressing and a red lentil soup. Both were fresh, but very simple — the kind of dishes that felt easily replicable at home, without much depth or seasoning. For a restaurant at this level, you expect more complexity and finish.<br><br>The pastas were disappointing. The ravioli, at around $30 for six pieces, came with a tomato sauce that tasted surprisingly flat. The pistachio pesto pasta lacked basic seasoning and felt incomplete. Neither dish justified the price point.<br><br>Service was slower than expected, with 40 minutes between courses. Bread arrived midway (as a way to apologize for the delay) through the wait but was stale and not warmed, which added to the sense that details were being missed.<br><br>The restaurant clearly emphasizes high-quality, local ingredients, and that freshness does come through. But at this price range, freshness alone isn’t enough — you expect flavor, balance, and execution to carry the experience.<br><br>Overall, I’d return for the ambiance, but not necessarily for the food.

This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. A huge thank you to Chef Ja for creating such an incredible meal. Every bite was thoughtful and absolutely delicious. Our server Nick was attentive, warm, and made us feel completely taken care of. Osa was also wonderful when dropping off desserts. A special shoutout to the amazing management team who made it extra memorable: Ivan, Chris, Karla, and Emma.<br><br>And of course a big thank you to Abby for making this all possible! This team truly cares about hospitality. Can’t wait to come back! 💫

ABC Kitchen is for sure an experience - the service was excellent and the ambiance is gorgeous. The food is extremely creative and well thought through - it almost feels like fine dining but more attainable and better tasting (and less weird). The presentation of the dishes was top notch and the flavor profiles were playful and layered.<br><br>Standout dishes were the chicken entree (see pics) and also the desserts (particularly the apple pavlova with pistachio ice cream). Overall a lovely, indulgent meal that was worth the splurge.

We came here for Restaurant Week dinner. Overall, the food was good, but the salmon and burger entrées were both a bit too salty for our taste. The sashimi appetizer was unique and interesting, though slightly underwhelming given our expectations from a Jean-Georges restaurant. The highlight of the meal was the chocolate cake — rich, well-balanced, and delicious.

From the first moment that I stepped into the restaurant, I felt like I had left Brooklyn. The attention to detail is exquisite, there is always something beautiful to look at. The service was impeccable, the team ensuring plates were cleared , water glasses were filled and checking in to make sure everything was to our liking. I love a family style restaurant with shared plates and the food exceeded all of my expectations. You must order the sautéed hopper shrimp, the warm leeks (never knew I could love a leak so much), both types of empanadas (you will thank me later) and the campo grande iberico pork chop (best I have ever had). You can't go wrong with any of the desserts but the caramel popcorn sundae and warm chocolate cake are the perfect way to end the meal. I will definitely be back soon. 10/10, no notes.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant. The ambiance can't be beat. Great drink and food menu. Everything is on the pricier side but it's very farm to table and fresh. Tried the crab toast after reading all the positive reviews and it was solid.

Have had lots of things here and you can never go wrong. They are known for their fried chicken. I recently had their spicy pizza and chocolate cake and both were amazing. The food is really good and the ambience is great, food prices are in line with the quality of food that you expect at this price point and it's worth it.

Went for a Bilt Rewards special—an unbeatable deal at $60 for the full menu, plus $30 for two drinks.<br><br>Food<br>Appetizers – The roasted carrot and avocado salad was fantastic—bursting with flavor and a pleasant surprise for something I’d never normally order. Absolutely worth getting again. The pizza was fine, nothing memorable.<br>Entrées – The fried organic chicken came in a generous portion with a bit of a spicy kick, but it wasn’t my favorite. The campanelle, on the other hand, was delicious—unexpectedly addictive and full of flavor.<br>Desserts – The blueberry pie was just okay (I’m not much of a pie person), but the caramel popcorn sundae was a 10/10 standout. The combination of salted caramel ice cream, fudge at the bottom, and crunchy popcorn was pure perfection.

Finally got to try one of Jean-Georges’ NYC restaurants and came to abc kitchen for Restaurant Week. Such a beautiful space with intimate lighting and a warm vibe, and the service was great from start to finish.<br>Started with the tomato toast, which was simple but so good—crispy toast topped with ripe, flavorful tomato slices and just the right amount of seasoning. For my main, I had skate for the first time at a restaurant and it was wonderful. Tender and delicate, served over a vibrant mix of tomatoes, eggplant, and green olives that really brought it all together. Finished with the cherry pie, which was a nice finish. All in all, a very enjoyable meal. I’ll be back

I started with a cocktail the lychee bellini. It was nice and fruity. Then I started of with the calamari the two sauces that were with the calamari was delicious and the calamari was nice and crispy, not greasy as well which is a plus. Overall definitely recommend. Then I ordered the truffle pizza, oh my gosh let me just say this is one of the best pizzas that I had in NYC. The thin pizza crust taste so good and crispy. The truffle paired with the egg was amazing the flavors were so well executed and the chesse topped it all off. Definitely recommend. Last but not least the dessert. One of the waiters recommended the carrot cake so I was like ok let me go for it. This definitely is a great carrot cake I'm not even trying to say is your average carrot cake because is not. This carrot cake is so soft and it just melts in your mouth the icing was amazingly paired with the cake. Overall great cake definitely try it you won't be at all disappointed. The two waiters were really nice and friendly. The staff overall were all great. Thank you and definitely will be coming back.

came here for a celebratory dinner for a friend and it definitely had a casual but elevated atmosphere. our server was very kind and attentive, always refilling the water and checking-in time to time. the food was good but none of it blew me away for the price. menu highlights for me: peekytoe crab toast (yum), bass (good but pricey), and side asparagus (nice surprise).
